Welcome to the latest Screenwriter quiz. The online editor has authorised me to hand-over a non-cash prize — non-existent, in fact — to anybody who can spot Quvenzhané Wallis, young star of Beasts of the Southern Wild, in this photo from the recent lunch for Oscar nominees. Actually, that’s absurdly easy. Anybody who can spot Christoph Waltz will receive a lifetime free subscription to the Screenwriter “blog”.

It’s a really nice snap. Just look how happy Jacki Weaver seems. You slog away for 40 years and then suddenly, halfway into your sixties, you get two Oscar nominations in as many years.
